I report on how consciousness and community are transcending god and state, locally in Washington, DC, and globally, where ever I see progress - or backsliding, including on the feminist front! "Imagine there's no countries, and no religion, too."

Celebrating a Bush War with an Obomba War

March 19th, the 8th anniversary of the U.S. attack on Iraq -- which led to far more death and destruction than anything Saddam Hussein was doing to his own people, and it's not over yet. And now the U.S. (supposedly under French lead) is helping attack Libyan troops, supposedly to keep Omar Gaddafi from mass killing his people. We'll see how that works out.

On CNN's "Reliable Sources" this morning "journalists" discussed how the media was SO exhausted from Arab uprisings and Japanese earthquakes it might have not asked the tough questions on Libya that they admitted they had not asked on Iraq. The truth is, CNN and other media paraded many of the same Neocon traitors promoting attacks on Libya (all of whom also want to attack Iran) that they paraded in the lead up to the Iraq war. They even had a long CNN interview with arch warmonger Benjamin Netanyahu (the puppet master to Obomba that Ariel Sharon was to George W. Bush - as even Ralph Nader pointed out about Bush). But "Reliable Sources" didn't mention CNN and other media's role in promoting these attacks.

Obomba and Netanyahu like to pretend they are like the dog protecting its friend that has come out as one of the dominant symbols of the Japanese earthquake. (See video below.) But they aren't. They are more like a pack of rats with nukes: Netanyahu grabbing up every piece of Arab land and Obomba grabbing up tens of millions in AIPAC and government employee union money. (Since he won't get all those young people and independents contributing to him this time around.) Ugh. Ugh. A thousand times ugh.
